Journey To The Center Of The Earth 歌詞
By horse by rail by land by sea our journey starts
Two men incensed by one man's journey from the past
In Iceland where the mountain stood with pride
They set off with their guide
To reach the mountain side
Roped as one for safety through the long descent
Into the crater of volcanic rock they went
Look up from our telescopic laair
One star for us to share
We continue on our prayer
Crystals of opaque quartz studded limpid tears
Forming magic chandeliers lighting blistered galleries
Memories of a life on earth go flashing past
Of home of Grauben friends of whom he's seen his last
Contemplating what his life's been worth
While trapped beneath the earth
An embryo at birth
Pain and fear destroy the beauty I have seen
Of caverns where no other man has been
Silurian epoch hosts me as my grave
My final blow I wave
A life too late to save
Crystals of opaque quartz studded limpid tears
Forming magic chandeliers lighting blistered galleries
Five days out on an infinite sea they prayed for calm on an ocean free
But the surface of the water ws indicating some disturbance
The raft was hurled by an unseen source two hundred feet with
Frightening force
And a dark mass rising showed to be a giant porpoise
Rising out of the angry sea towered the creatures' enemy
And so the two sea monsters closed for battle
Crocodile teeth lizard's head bloodshot eye stained ocean red
Moving close to their raft's side the two men prayed as one and cried
Save me save me save me save me
The serpents' fight went on for hours two monsters soaring up like towers
And driving downn to the depths in a single motion
Suddenly the serpent's head shot out of the water bathed in red
And the serpentine form lay lifeless on the ocean
Crocodile teeth lizard's head bloodshot eye stained ocean read
Battle won a victor's pride the three men thanked the Lord and cried
Praise God praise God praise God praise God
Journey on through ages gone to the centre of the earth
Past rocks of quartz and granite which gave mother nature birth
Burial ground of ancient man his life no more is seen
A journey through his time unknown I wonder where he's been
Wonder where he's been wonder where he's been wonder where he's been
The shore now gone behind the hills a forest in our sight
Rocks and distant mountains bathed in waves of blinding light
Forests from far gone time no living man has seen
A private prehistoric world for you and I a dream
Brownish hue dicates my eye no colour hides their fear
Flowers faded dull and cold now bleached by atmosphere
Creatures twisting under trees huge monsters soaked with rage
Hidden deep below our earth a frightening bygone age
Their shepherd came now long extinct a huge primeval man
The three men filled with disbelief just turned as one and ran
